Chateau Avalon is a luxury hotel/bed & breakfast located in Kansas City, Kansas, U.S.A.. Chateau Avalon took its first reservations in June 2004. The idea for the hotel as a local, upscale, vacation destination was developed by Steve Beaumont, a businessman from Shawnee, Kansas. The 62 room hotel features 23 different types of themed rooms. The Chateau Avalon was one of the first businesses to open its doors in the Village West area of Kansas City, KS, and sits directly across from the Legends Shopping district and the Kansas Speedway at the intersection of Interstate 435 and Interstate 70.

Beaumont Fountain
Named for its creator, Steve Beaumont, the Beaumont Fountain at Chateau Avalon is the largest structural fountain in Kansas City, a city known for fountains. The fountain took 1 year to build and was dedicated in August 2006. Featuring French, Spanish, and Italian influences, the fountain draws its inspiration from the Fontaine De Mers at the Palace de Concorde in Paris. At night, the fountain is lit on all sides by color-shifting L.E.D. lights. Benches surround the fountain where onlookers can relax, and a private drive allows people to view the fountain without leaving their car.
The fountain is also nearly identical to the fountain in front of the Paris hotel & casino in Las Vegas - but that one was created from copper, whereas the Beaumont Fountain is stone and concrete.
